THE
HARRIET
TUBMAN
OVERGROUND RAILROAD PROJECT
Harriet Tubman is a powerful symbol of resistance against oppression and continues to inspire movements advocating for racial justice.
The Harriet Tubman Overground Railroad Project, as reimagined by Pay Attention!, establishes a modern-day connection to the metaphorical 19th-century Underground Railroad and to Tubman herself, whose courageous leadership and strength of character guided enslaved people on their path to freedom.
